Hello
Changing the fork oil on a friends bike, as it hasn't been done for 10 years. So I am going to remove the forks,from the bike. Then I'm just going to let the oil drain with the forks upside down for a day or two. The springs just come out, don't they? As I don't fancy stripping the forks down. Then spary in some brake and clucth cleaner leave for a bit to evporate then maybe splash a bit of Isopropoly alcohol to clean the whole system out.
Or am I being stupid.
